Shamed Harvey Weinstein used an ‘army of spies’ to ‘dig dirt on actresses’

He also used Kroll, one of the biggest global corporate intelligence firms, to gather details about the actresses’ personal lives and sexual histories, says Ronan Farrow — who first det­ailed rape allegations against Weinstein — in a second probe for The New Yorker.

In it Farrow, son of actress Mia, alleges that the film honcho got a women’s rights activist to befriend Scream star Rose McGowan in the hope of getting an early copy of her memoir.

One invoice alone is said to show Weinstein spent more than £450,000 on his dirt-digging — building psychological profiles on dozens of targets.

The producer’s spokeswoman Sallie Hofmeister said: “It is a fiction to suggest that any individuals were targeted or suppressed at any time.”
